- FIG. 3 it is a schematic block diagram of a smart home control system 300 according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure.
- the smart home control system 300 includes a host 31 , a memory 32 , a plurality of sensors (two sensors being shown herein, but not limited to), an electronic calendar 34 , an input device 35 and an informing device 36 .
- the electronic calendar 34 is edited via the input device 35 or a mobile/wearable device 39 .
- the electronic calendar 34 is an individual electronic device and has its own input interface.
- the memory 32 includes volatile memory and/or non-volatile memory, and is used to record multiple agenda including at least one of, for example, purchasing objects, people contact, paying bills, carrying objects, and proceeding positions, wherein the multiple agenda occur at identical or different times to be recorded by the smart home control system 300 .
- Each of the multiple agenda is recorded by an item code having multiple bits.
- the item code includes, for example, at least one of a member bit, a category bit, a temporal bit and a position bit.
- the member bit (shown as people in FIG. 3 ) is used to indicate or mark a family member (or member ID) who is suitable to execute an agendum. For example, if a digital value of the member bit is “1”, it means that the associated agendum is suitable to be executed by a male member; if a digital value of the member bit is “0”, it means that the associated agendum is suitable to be executed by a female or young member; and if the member bit is a null-bit (shown as N in FIG. 3 ), it means that the associated agendum is suitable to be executed by any family member.
- one agendum is suitable to be executed or not executed by a family member according to more than one bit, e.g., executed by an adult and male member (e.g., the member bit having two bits, one for indicating an adult or not, and the other one for indicating a male member or not), or suitable to executed or not executed by more than one family member, e.g., not executed by an elder and a child. That is, one agendum has multiple limitations of family members indicated by the member bit.
- one agendum is set to be executed based on a priority of family member, e.g., the member bit having another bit for indicating or defining the priority associated with one agendum. If the family member having a higher priority is not able to execute one agendum (e.g., due to the indication of other bits as mentioned below), said one agendum is automatically changed to the family member having a lower priority.
- the priority is set by more than one bits, e.g., one bit for indicating male and one bit for indicating adult; one bit for indicating female and one bit for indicating adult.
- the priority is indicated or defined by the temporal bit as below. That is, the member bit includes multiple bits respectively used to indicate different features of every family member.
- the category bit (shown as affair in FIG. 3 ) is used to indicate or mark a type of an agendum including, for example, the purchasing objects, people contact, paying bills, carrying objects, proceeding positions (shown as I 1 to I 3 in FIG. 3 , but not limited to) as mentioned above.
- the type of an agendum may be set and changed by family member(s) via the input device 35 or preset in the smart home control system 300 .
- the temporal bit (shown as time in FIG. 3 ) is used to indicate or mark an execution interval or priority of an agendum. For example, if a digital value of the temporal bit is “1”, (show as I in FIG. 3 ) it means that the associated agendum is a normal level and it is not necessary to accomplish this agendum in a hurry. In this case, when a family member associated with a current event does not match this agendum (illustrated by an example below), the family member is not informed to execute this agendum. However, if a digital value of the temporal bit is “10” (show as II in FIG. 3 ), it means that the associated agendum is an emergency.
- the family member is still informed to execute this agendum. For example, if one agendum is set to be executed by a male member but when the temporal bit of the one agendum is indicated as an emergency, this agendum is still informed to other family members. In some aspects, even though a current agendum is indicated as an emergency, the current agendum is never informed to a specific member, e.g., never noticing a kid or elder, but not limited thereto. That is, some agenda are always set to be executed or not executed by a specific family member.
- a digital value of the temporal bit is “11” (show as III in FIG. 3 )
- the position bit (shown as spot in FIG. 3 ) is used to indicate or mark an execution position of an agendum, e.g., convenient store, supermarket, restaurant, book store, friend's home (shown as A to C in FIG. 3 , but not limited to). That is, different digital values of the position bit are used to indicate different positions of one agendum.
- an agendum e.g., convenient store, supermarket, restaurant, book store, friend's home (shown as A to C in FIG. 3 , but not limited to). That is, different digital values of the position bit are used to indicate different positions of one agendum.
- one agendum is suitable to be executed by more than one family member, within more than one interval and/or at more than one position.
- bit number of the item code (Ic) is determined according to the information needed to indicate.
- the smart home control system 300 includes multiple registers to respectively indicate the item code including the member bit, the category bit, the temporal bit and the position bit. That is, the host 31 sets the item code by setting the state of the multiple registers.
- the smart home control system 300 sets the item code of agenda according to detection results of the plurality of sensors 331 , 332 . . . .
- the sensor is embedded in a smart home appliance, e.g., in a smart refrigerator or a smart lamp device.
- the smart refrigerator is integrated with multiple sensors used to detect storage amount of goods and the detected result is sent to the host 31 after the smart refrigerator is coupled to the host 31 .
- the sensor is arranged as individual CCD image sensors, CMOS image sensors, thermal sensors, audio sensors, radio sensors (e.g., RFID) or the like.
- the host 31 is selected from various fixed or movable computers that have calculating ability, e.g., a personal computer, desktop computer, notebook computer, tablet computer, security server or the like without particular limitations.
- the host 31 is coupled (wired or wireless) to the memory 32 and the plurality of sensors 331 , 332 . . . to give a new item code of a new agendum detected by one of the plurality of sensors, and the new item code is recorded in the memory 32 .
- a smart refrigerator detects that the egg is run out or when a smart lamp device detects that a lamp is burn-out, a signal is sent to the host 31 .
- the host 31 takes this signal as a new agendum, and gives, for example, the member bit as N, the category bit as shopping (e.g., I 1 ), the temporal bit as I (e.g., normal item), and the position bit as supermarket (e.g., A) as a new item code to be recorded.
- the member bit as N the category bit as shopping (e.g., I 1 )
- the temporal bit as I e.g., normal item
- supermarket e.g., A
- the host 31 further compares (in a bit-by-bit manner) the correlation or similarity of a new item code of a new agendum with the item codes of the recorded multiple agenda (i.e. the existed agenda) to confirm whether to combine or link (e.g., to be informed together) the new agendum to one of the existed agenda. For example, when the member bit, category bit, temporal bit and position bit of a new agendum are fully identical to the item code of one existed agendum or a list of existed agenda, the host 31 combines or links the new agendum to the existed agendum or the list of existed agenda to improve the operation efficiency.
- one bit of a new item code of a new agendum is set as “Null”, the one bit of the new item code is similar or correlated to a corresponding bit of any recorded item code, i.e. null-bit having no limitation and having a lowest priority. Accordingly, if the new agendum is combined or linked to one recorded agendum that has limited item code, e.g., limited to be executed by a specific member, within a specific interval or at a specific spot, the new agendum (originally having null-bit) is then limited to be executed by the same limitation as the recorded agendum to which the new agendum is combined or linked, i.e. null-bit being changed to be the same as the recorded agendum.
- the host 31 monitors the happening in the house via a plurality of sensors 331 , 332 . . . and sequentially gives a code thereto to be recorded in the memory 32 as the agenda.
- an agendum may be known by checking the electronic calendar 34 . For example, if one family member edited an appointment with someday in the electronic calendar 34 , after checking the electronic calendar 34 , the host 31 takes this appointment as a new agendum and gives an item code (including bits of people, affair, time and spot as shown in FIG. 3 ) thereof to be recorded in the memory 32 . The recorded agendum is informed to the associated family member at the someday.
- the host 31 When recognizing a current event, the host 31 gives an event code (Ec) of the current event, and then compares the event code with the recorded multiple item codes (Ic) to determine related agenda of the current event among the existed multiple agenda.
- the current event is also preferably indicated by people, affair, time and spot, e.g., the event code includes at least one of an event member bit, an event category bit, an event temporal bit and an event position bit corresponding to the item bits.
- the event member bit, the event category bit, the event temporal bit and the event position bit are indicated by multiple registers.
- the comparing is to confirm whether the corresponding bits are identical.
- the agendum is considered as a related agendum (i.e. item code and event code matching).
- the host 31 stores the generated event code into the memory 32 at first and then compares with the existed item codes, or the host 32 directly compares the generated event code with the existed item codes and the event code is then cancelled after the comparison.
- the comparing procedure if one bit of the item code or the event code is indicated or given as “Null”, the null-bit is similar or correlated to the corresponding bit.
- the current event is an event triggered by a person, e.g., including family member leaving and family member having a phone call, but not limited thereto. As long as an event triggered by a person may be linked to deal with an existed agendum at the same time, this event is considered as a current event herein.
- the sensor 331 is an image sensor.
- the host 31 recognizes a member ID according to image frames captured by the image sensor (e.g., face recognition mentioned above) and identifies whether the associated family member goes out or not, e.g., according to the proceeding direction of the member image.
- an event code of a leaving event is given.
- the event member bit is set as a digital value indicating a male member (and an ID if there are more than one male members in the family)
- the digital value of the event category bit is set by recognizing the dressing (e.g., wearing sportswear) of the male member
- the digital value of the event temporal bit is set according to his leaving time. If it is not able to define the event position bit, the event position bit is set as null-bit, or the proceeding position is identified using other ways (illustrated by an example below).
- the informing device 36 is used to inform the related agenda of the current event.
- the informing device 36 includes a mobile device, a display screen or a dialogue system.
- the host 31 informs, via the informing device 36 , the leaving member such related agenda regarding the goods to be purchased, positions to proceed and items to be carried.
- the sensor 332 is an audio sensor.
- the host 31 recognizes a member ID according to the voice data acquired by the audio sensor (e.g., by the voiceprint as mentioned above) and identifies whether the associated member is having a phone call (e.g., by NLP as mentioned above). After the host 31 identifies a member ID who is on the phone, an event code of a calling event is given. For example, the event member bit indicates an ID of a family member who is having the phone call, the event category bit indicates a phone call, the event temporal bit indicates a calling time zone, and the event position bit indicates at home.
- the bit when the host 31 is not able to identify a feature of any bit of the member bit, the category bit, the temporal bit or the position bit, the bit is set as null-bit.
- the null-bit matches (e.g., correlated with or similar to as mentioned above) any digital value of a corresponding bit.
- the host 31 informs the related agenda of the current event using the informing device 36 , e.g., the content to tell the person at the other side of the phone.
- the host 31 identifies and sets digital values of every bit of a current event according to the detection results of more than one sensor, e.g., performing the face recognition according to the image frame and confirming the heading position or activity according to the voice data.
- the host 31 determines every bit of the event code of a current event according to the daily schedule. For example, one of the family members goes to the same position or has the same activity every day or someday of a week, the host 31 sets the event code of a leaving event when identifying the family member goes out at that specific time. The host 31 then actively compares the event code with the accumulated multiple item codes of multiple agenda to confirm the related agenda.
- the daily schedule is set by the family member via the input device 35 or actively identified according to the feedback of the mobile/wearable device 39 .
- the host 3 is used to determine the event code according to the content of the electronic calendar 34 . For example, when recognizing that one family member is going out (e.g., according to the image frame or voice data), the host 31 retrieves the proceeding position and purpose by checking the electronic calendar 34 to accordingly set the digital values of every bit of the event code to be compared with the recorded item codes.
- the position bits of the item code and/or the event code may also be set according to the historical paths of a family member. For example, shops, restaurants or addresses passed by when the family member goes to or comes back from the job position are used to set the position bit. That is, the position bit is not set according to a single position.
- the smart home control system 300 is connected to a network 38 to receive positioning signals of the family members via the network 38 .
- the positioning signals are generated, for example, by the mobile/wearable device 39 of the family members and transmitted to the host 31 via the network 38 . In this way, the host 31 determines the digital values of the position bits of the item code and/or the event code according to the historical paths of the positioning signals.
- the host 31 indicates the position bit of an agendum to include multiple passed positions.
- the host 31 takes the agendum as a related agendum of the going to work event.
- the host 31 after the host 31 informs a related agendum using the informing device 36 , the informed agendum is not immediately removed from the list of recorded multiple agenda.
- the host 31 When one agendum is confirmed to be accomplished by one of the plurality of sensors (e.g., new eggs being put in the case, new lamp being exchanged), by the audio sensor, by the electronic calendar 34 or by input of the input device 35 , the host 31 then removes the accomplished agendum from the list of recorded multiple agenda.
- the item code and/or the event code may be changed or set via a human machine interface of the input device 35 , wherein the input device 35 includes, for example, at least one of a mouse device, a keyboard, a joystick, a screen, a microphone and a touch device.
- the input device 35 is coupled to the host 31 , the host 31 executes the corresponding control and gives the response based on the installed software and/or hardware. In some aspects, all or a part of the input device 35 is integrated in the host 31 .
- FIG. 4 it is a flow chart of an operating method of a smart home control system 300 according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure.
- the operating method includes: confirming a leaving family member (Step S 41 ); setting an event code (Step S 42 ); checking related agenda of the event code (Step S 43 ); informing the related agenda to the leaving family number (Step S 44 ); and confirming whether the related agenda is accomplished or not (Step S 45 ).
- the current event is illustrated by a leaving event as an example. As mentioned above, the current event may be other events triggered by a person. Referring to FIGS. 3-4 together, details of one example of this operating method are illustrated below.
- Step S 41 Before the occurring of a current event, it is assumed that the memory 32 has previously recorded at least one agendum. As mentioned above, the agendum is detected by the sensors 331 , 332 . . . , confirmed from the electronic calendar 34 , or inputted via the input device 35 . The host 31 detects the current event via the sensors 331 , 332 . . . , e.g., a family member going out, and the detecting method has been illustrated above and thus are not repeated. When the host 31 is triggered by the current event, the Step S 42 is entered.
- Step S 42 The host 31 sets the event code, including changing the digital value or register states, of the current event according to the detection results of the sensors or information from other peripheral devices (e.g., electronic calendar 34 or input device 35 ). As mentioned above, the host 31 may or may not store the generated event code into the memory 32 .
- Step S 43 the host 31 checks whether the existed agenda have any related agendum of the event code. As mentioned above, the host 31 checks the related agenda by comparing the event code with every item code. It is appreciated that if the memory 32 does not record any agendum, the comparing is not performed.
- Step S 44 If the memory 32 does contain the related agendum of the event code of the current event, the host 31 uses the informing device 36 or the mobile/wearable device 39 to notify the event member to execute the related agendum. If the agenda in the memory 32 do not match (correlated or similar) the event code (e.g., more than a predetermined number of corresponding bits having different digital values), the recorded agenda are not informed to the current event member and awaiting to be executed by other family members.
- the event code e.g., more than a predetermined number of corresponding bits having different digital values
- Step S 45 Finally, when the host 31 receives a message indicating that one agendum is accomplished, e.g., from the sensor 331 , 332 . . . , electronic calendar 34 , the input device 35 and/or mobile/wearable device 39 , the accomplished agendum is cancelled or removed from the memory 32 .
- a message indicating that one agendum is accomplished e.g., from the sensor 331 , 332 . . . , electronic calendar 34 , the input device 35 and/or mobile/wearable device 39 .
- the smart home control system 300 still takes the absent event as a current event, and gives an event code (Ec) of the absent event to be recorded in the memory 32 when recognizing the absent event. If a new agendum occurs (e.g., detected by one of the plurality of sensors) when the family member is still outside, the host 31 gives a new item code to the new agendum and compares the new item code with the recorded event code to determine whether the new agendum is a related agendum of the recorded absent event.
- Ec event code
- the host 31 informs the outdoor member via the network 38 to execute the new agendum. However, if the new agendum is not a related agendum, the host 31 accumulates the new agendum in the memory 32 waiting to be informed to other family members, e.g., informed when detecting a leaving event of another family member as an example in the second embodiment mentioned above. Whether the new agendum is a related agendum is identified, for example, according to the correlation or similarity between the new item code and the recorded event code as mentioned above.
- the informed family member can refuse to execute the related agendum, e.g. using the input device 35 or the mobile/wearable device 39 to send a refuse signal.
- the host 31 continuously holds the agendum waiting to be informed to other family members (in the case the agendum being suitable to be executed by more than one family member).
- the host 31 replies that the related agendum cannot be refused.
- the memory further stores software and/or the host is embedded with hardware or firmware used in operation of the above first and second embodiments.
- the smart home control system of the present disclosure further helps the family member to search a specific object (e.g., cellphone, keys). For example, the family member tells the smart home control system the specific object to be searched via a smart audio assistant.
- the host locates the specific object by the image recognition and then informs the family member through the informing device, e.g., showing on a display screen or playing by a speaker.
- the smart home control system of the present disclosure further actively reminds a leaving member to bring an umbrella or regarding the weather at the time the family member is about to go out if the raining and high temperature information is obtained from the internet.
- the smart home control system of the present disclosure further actively informs, via the mobile/wearable device, the family member to deal with the situation of unclosed stove fire when there is nobody at home. Furthermore, when a fire scene is monitored, the smart home control system actively contacts the local fire brigade.
- the smart home control system of the present disclosure further monitors, e.g., by analyzing captured images, the food being eaten by the family member. When it is detected that any family member is about to eat allergenic food, an alarm is provided by the host via the informing device.
- the smart home control system of the present disclosure further monitors, e.g., by analyzing captured images, the fragment or fluid on the floor.
- a cleaning robot is automatically informed to perform the cleaning job or family members are informed via the informing device or the mobile/wearable device by the host.
- the smart home control system of the present disclosure further monitors, e.g., by analyzing captured images or thermal images, the physical discomfort of family members. For example, if the fever, falling or abnormal behavior is detected, other family members are informed by the host via the informing device or the mobile/wearable device. If the unusual situation is continuously not eliminated, a medical institution is contacted.
- the smart home control system of the present disclosure further performs the environment control. For example, if the low room temperature, holding tightly the bed sheet or sneeze is detected, e.g., by analyzing captured images or thermal images, the temperature setting is increased. In this case, the controlled device is coupled to the host.
- the smart home control system of the present disclosure is further adaptable to the house having a single member and the control procedure is much easier.
- the family member adapted to trigger or activate the smart home control system may be set or changed using the input device or the mobile/wearable device.
- both the first and second embodiments perform the corresponding function by detecting the entering and leaving of a person, they are combinable to operate together. For example, when detecting the entering and leaving of a family member, the host controls the conducting state of the control switches and prompt the related agendum.
- the above embodiments are illustrated in the way that the host performs the automatic control according to the detection results, the content in the memory may also be set and changed by a family member using the mobile/wearable device via the network.
